Abstract(s)

InfAct (Information for Action!), the Joint Action on Health Information (https://www.inf-act.eu/) is a project funded by the European Commission. It builds on the BRIDGE Health project and other initiatives in health information. The project was launched in March 2018. Through country collaboration, InfAct streamlines health information activities across Europe. It builds towards a sustainable and solid infrastructure on EU health information and strengthens its core elements based on capacity building, health information tools and political support. Portugal, together with Finland, leads the project's Work Package 6 (WP6), through a team of professionals from the Directorate General of Health (who coordinates), the Institute of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine - NOVA University of Lisbon and the National Institute of Health Doctor Ricardo Jorge. WP6 includes, among other tasks, the development of a Sustainable Capacity Building Programme (flagship Programme) and its evaluation. The preparation of the first proposal of the referred Programme is ongoing and will be evaluated when completed. The evaluation team conducted an evaluability assessment (pre-evaluation) based on the principles and methods of the theory of change, with the agreement of the national team. The aims of the evaluability assessment were to describe the target programme of the evaluation through a logical model built with the participation of key stakeholders, and to define the focus of the evaluation. The logical model was built based on the results of a literature review by the evaluation team and the contributions of a workshop meeting, which took place on October 30, 2019, and was attended by 14 stakeholders, selected as representatives of each part interested in the evaluation.
